Now here is the story of why I have that 2nd watch and not the first. Frugal parents with a large family. I also started out with a child-sized Timex handwinder. It was a Christmas present, and like many of my gifts during this time in the early 1970's it was a 2nd-hand watch. I wanted my own watch bad, and I'm sure my dad went to the local jeweller and asked about any resale watches he had. I wore it for a couple of years (I think 3rd-4th grades). I received the Waltham (again, a 2nd-hand watch as it was at least a decade old then) for Christmas as a upgrade to the Timex since I had physically grown and a mid-sized mens watch was a better fit. They repossessed the Timex, and I'm sure it went back to the jeweller as part of a trade-in.
